Korean idols U-Kiss will return to the local music scene with a new album next month, according to their agency NH Media on Wednesday.

"The album will either be in the format of a mini-album or a single and the release date will be sometime in mid-February," a PR official from NH told 10Asia over the phone.

He further explained that they are in talks with a producer in the United States to have songs they previously received from him to be rearranged. "The songs will be included in the group's upcoming album if everything gets a green light."

Composed of members Alexander, Ki-bum, Soohyun, Ki-seop, Eli, Kevin and Dongho, U-Kiss (Ubiquitous Korean International Super Star) made their debut with single album "New Generation" in September 2008.

They have also released their first album in Japan, performed in front of 5,000 fans at their concert and held promotional events as well.

Members Eli, Ki-seop and Dongho will make appearances on MBC cable channel MBC every1’s new sitcom which will go on air this month while Kevin is scheduled the lead role in an upcoming musical.
